I cannot here forget to inform that of old Our Acts of Parl. had oftentimes the Kings great seal appended to them Upon the right hand were appended all the seals of the Ecclesiasticks and upon the left all the seals of the Nobility with which the whole Act was surrounded Of these I have seen many and particularly a ratification granted by King Iames 4. to Hepburn Earl of Bothwel upon the forfeiture of the Ramsay Anno 1480. Which bears In quorum omnium fidem ac corroborationem laudationem earundem praefatus supremus Dominus noster Rex regni status per se singulariter requisiti sua sigilla quorum nomina sigilla representant praesentibus appendi jusserunt I conceive that Seals may very well represent not only the bearing it self but the colours which I first order'd to be practised for the Seal may be varried in its cut as the other figures of this Book are which may be very useful seing many mens Arms differ only in the colours CHAP. II. Who can give or bear ARMS OF old Emperours or Senats only gave Arms Laz. lib. 9. cap. 17. But thereafter they did choose an old expert Warriour on whom they bestowed the power of rewarding with Coats of Arms such as had deserved well and these were called Foeciales by the Romans but now are called Heraldi or Herawldi For Heer signifies an Army and alt an Elder Senes in armis or from heer an Army and Alda which in the Hungarian tongue signifies a common servant Hopping cap. 6. part 9. The ehief of that Society is called Lyon King of or at Arms with us Rex armorum in Latine Which name he bears from the Lyon which is the Royal charge with us and Konning Van Wappen by the Germans Ibid.

Iames Balfour Lyon The Concessions by the Lyon do now run thus TO all and sundry whom it effeirs I Sir Charles Areskine of Cambo Knight and Baronet Lyon King of Arms Considering That by several Acts of Parliament as well of Our dread Soveraign Lord CHARLES the Second By the Grace of God King of Scotland England France and Ireland Defender of the Faith as of His Majesties Royal Predecessors especially by the twenty one Act of the third Session of this Current Parliament I am impowered to visit the whole Arms and Bearings within this Kingdom and to distinguish them and matriculate the same in my Books and Registers and to give Extracts of all Arms expressing the Blazoning thereof under my hand and seal of Office And which Register is by the fore-cited Act ordained to be respected as the true and unrepealable Rule of all Arms and Bearings in Scotland to remain with the Lyons Office as a publick Register of the Kingdom Therefore conform to the power given to me by His Sacred Majesty and according to the tenors of the said Acts of Parliament I testifie and make known that the Arms of old belonging to the Royal Burgh of Aberdeen and now confirm'd by me are matriculate in my said publick Rigister upon the day and date of thir presents And are thus blazoned viz. The said Royal Burgh of Aberdeen Gives for Ensigns Armorial Gules three Towers triple towered within a double Tressure Counterflowred Argent Supported by two Leopards propper The Motto in an Escrol above Bon-Accord the Word Bon-Accord was given them by King Robert Bruce for killing all the English in one night in their Town their word being that night Bon-Accord And upon the Reverse of the Seal of the said Burgh is insculped in a Field Azure a Temple Argent Saint Michael standing in the Porch mitered and vested propper with his Dexter hand lifted up to Heaven praying over three Children in a boyling Caldron
